Back in the day, newspapers would call unpasteurized milk "swill milk" to get across that its gross and unhealthy

The immediate coalescing around Adams was wild. He barely scraped by in a primary against a weak field yet he was suddenly deemed the true voice of Democrats

It's kinda why I dread the idea of him. Heads he's a trump hack, tails he's an inflation hawk

Yeah I'm curious how much of a hack he'll turn out to be. Based off all other Republicans, probably a huge one.
Still, he only needs to kiss ass until he's in the chair. At that point the lame duck won't have as much power over him

based off their past warsh probably is more of an inflation hawk; to the point that it could be an actual concern in a slowdown/dem administration

Non American, English speaking trump fans continue to be the most baffling thing to me. They can actually hear the guy speak and still like him?

Back in the day in his Atlantic blog, Coates would write along his impressions as he read through books. He did this for postwar and was really taken by it: it seemed to really influence his thinking

The Senate should be fixed too if we're doing fantasy reform, but that's also not the case. We had a d Senate/r house from 2010-2014 and 2022-2024

Honestly would be way better if they lowered the Senate threshold to 50% and treated it like a vote of no confidence instead of a trial

Gavin newsom doing a podcast is a decent engagement idea. He's fucking it up by doing it with politicians and weird right wingers though. He should be doing it with draymond

"As ever, the only meaningful restraints on Trump here are internal" particularly annoys me. The primary checks on American imperialism are almost always external: the people being attacked fight back harder
